Gorillapod Focus w/ Ballhead X

The Gorillapod Focus w/ Ballhead X is a versatile mini tripod that can support professional-grade equipment. While its little brother, the Gorillapod SLR-Zoom w/ Mini Ballhead is rated to hold only 6.6 lbs, the Gorillapod Focus w/ Ballhead X handles up to 11 lbs with ease. Rather than an all-plastic design, the Focus features machined aluminum sockets and high-quality injection-molded thermoplastic joints (fancy for plastic). The Ballhead X also offers a great improvement over the BH1-01EN ballhead found on the SLR-Zoom, with two dedicated adjustment knobs for full 360° panning and up to 90° tilts. While the standard plate is a fancy X-shaped design, the ballhead does accept standard arca-swiss type plates. While the two Gorillapod versions work very similar in terms of versatility, with completely articulated legs that can be bent in any way you choose: standing on a shelf or table, wrapped around a post or chair back, etc. The Focus offers a much more durable build and supports heavier equipment.

Tim's Take

The Gorillapod is an indispensable item for traveling. While large, full-sized tripods can be cumbersome to lug around, the Gorillapod has always been one of my favorite items to take in its place...

The Gorillapod is an indispensable item for traveling. While large, full-sized tripods can be cumbersome to lug around, the Gorillapod has always been one of my favorite items to take in its place. The Gorillapod Focus w/ Ballhead X is an awesome choice for just about any camera you’re using. While many people look at it and think “why would I want a bunch of images from a foot off the ground?”, you’d be surprised how often there’s something nearby to set it on / wrap it around. The SLR-Zoom version is great if you need a lighter weight option, but if you have a bit more space, go for the Focus. You won’t regret it!
